Acclaimed musical puzzler Figment out now for Nintendo Switch


 

Bedtime Digital Games is very pleased to announce the release of its award-winning musical indie adventure, Figment, for the Nintendo Switch.

The game, which previously received rave reviews and a number of awards when it was released last year for PC, is available now via the Nintendo eShop with a 20% launch discount, taking the price down to $15.99/€15.99/£14.39.

Figment is a musical puzzle adventure set in the recesses of the human mind. Players control Dusty, the mind’s former voice of courage, as he attempts to fend off nightmares and get back to his former self.

The game features a full original soundtrack written by game designer Niels Højgaard Sørensen, a.k.a. Danish screamer-songwriter Stöj Snak – and performed by the game’s enemies themselves!

Following widespread acclaim at the time of its PC launch last September – with reviewers calling the game “delightful” and praising its “truly outstanding musical work” – Figment has already been the recipient of a number of awards, including ‘Best Narrative’ at BIG Festival, ‘Best Art’ at Casual Connect, and ‘Best Sound’ at AZPlay.

Figment is out now for Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo eShop. The game retails at $19.99/€19.99/£17.99, but a launch-week discount reduces the price by 20%.

About Figment

Figment is a musical action-adventure set in the recesses of the human mind: a strange and surreal world; a place filled with our deepest thoughts, urges and memories, populated by the many voices we hear in our heads.

This mind has been quiet and calm for many years. But something has changed. New thoughts have started to emerge – taking the shape of nightmarish creatures who spread fear wherever they go. The only hope is for the grumpy Dusty, the mind’s former voice of courage, to get back to his old self and help the mind to face its fears.

Figment invites players to join Dusty and his ever-optimistic friend, Piper, on an adventure through the different sides of the mind, solving puzzles to set things straight, beating back the nightmares and seeking to restore the courage that’s been lost.

Key features:

  • A gorgeous hand-drawn world to explore and restore
  • Fight human fears head-on, as you battle with sinister nightmares
  • Use both brawn and brain, solving puzzles and battling enemies
  • Enjoy a full score of musical performances, nightmarish and otherwise, which are defined by your exploration of the world
